Same for me, good at grades, competitions, having fun with prototyping but rarely building anything finished.

I rarely find motivation to build stuff, but I am strongly motivated to find out why stuff doesn't work and how to fix it, even sometimes to actually fix it.

My advice for you is to pair up with a builder, look at what he's doing, help him when he gets stuck on some bug and struggle to keep up with his creativity.
